2012-09-30
While many of us have heard the phrase "statute of limitations," we may not understand its legal meaning.

Kansas Court of Appeals Rules Recidivist Law for Sex Offenders Is Too Harsh
2012-09-30

Recently the GHSA adopted a new policy supporting a ban on handheld cellphone use for all drivers. Presently only ...
